Her Name Is Love

Dear love
i know you wont even remeber what i do
dear love you dont know how much i loved you
dear cupid i found your child 
dear god shes gone wild 
heart is spicy and flavorful never mild 
dear cat lady 
do you dare remeber me?
haha we went to san mateo elemantary 
sock hop heart drop photos of us send me back blissfully
and yet i could bet my breath you never even missed me
i remeber you so perfectly 
standing ther in front of me 
you took me to your house a few times 
to our memory i dedicate these rhymes 
your personification of beauty
is amusing and your your lips are lovely
.... love leigh 
love leigh i adore your adorability
entertwined with your sweet humility
i saved your picture for 4 years
stared at it every day so cheers
so here is the epitomy of my tears
ive drempt these words hundreds of times
with many differnt rhymes just to catch your attention
ive forgotton every one else, you are my exception
too much to mention that i remeber what you smell like
and when im stressed i remeber it to relive my tension
i loved you, and watched you leave
but somwhere deep down, i always belived
that id find you again, but never thought that itd actually be acheived 
you were the first to make me smile and feel my heart race out of my chest toward you
nothing felt more true 
more right more perfect, to have my hand held by you
i can only be your friend but my heart will always have a place for you.

Mental Confinement

this house is a prison 
these windows are taunting 
this weight on my shoulders is daunting 
my voice inside my head is haunting 
memories leave tears on my face
tears start to burn and leave blood in their trace
im isolated in deep space
solitary confinement 
deep sorrowful assignment 
the stars are in allignment 
my world is coming to an end thats what the peace sign ment
heaven sent, me hell, world upside down call it hell bent
half my heart is left, the other paid rent
i have half a heart but im completly broken, take a hint
one way street no reason to resent 
choises made, makes my brain fade 
heading to your heart, call it a crusade 
my love is broken, hell made
took every single wrong road, ... well played
epic fail, blood red is the best shade
through the light and through the dark
blood red will always make its mark 
love the pain and hate the pleasure 
nonconformality at its greatest measure 
love is lost and found like great treasure 
trust turns to tradgedty 
lies are truely ravishing 
my heart is cold and wandering, the walking dead emotionless traveling 
chilling ice adorning my flesh is lavishing 
in a strange twist of fate my mind bears my captivity 
trapped inside my thoughts from which i cannot escape, stranger thoughts than activity
forever fading my sanity
at the sacrafice of my vanity 
my last resort, to escape has been taken from me
this prison is maximum security 
love is lost, friends betrayed 
family estranged 
adrinaline caged
adhd enraged 
locked up tight 
strait jacket restricted helplessly bound try as i might
blind folds corrode my sight 
exiled and exausted drawn out distressed vigil put to the test 
sick to my stomach and too tired to rest
i sit in my cell, of isolation 
my mind is cramped of desolation
these words are a demonstration 
as a last resort, to far gone to ever undergo restoration 
i lay solemnly suffering from loss of articulation.

The Rose

bullets, and hearts
lifeless bodies piled in carts
a lonlely mortition chewing over sweet tarts,
ironic, bitter sweet
blood can boil if you can bring the heat
and the dead can move, provided with a heart beat
black roses on my grave
mourn my loss on this day
blood dripping from my heart every which way
injured, batterd, buised and tattered 
you destroyed it all like it never even mattered 
falling roses in the sky
drops of blood spatter my eye
i told you i would love you until i die
my word is true, i was nobody until i found you
but you dont love me do you
bloody petals on the floor
you say nothing because you love me no more 
heart beat stops
face flops
knees weak and my body drops
exctacsy to heartbreak 
fearless too forsake
death is welcome but never comes
your the woman to seduce, but never succumbs 
to entrap but never loves 
it makes no sence like poisonous doves
looks to thrill 
designed to kill 
you say that you wont but i know that you will
your heart constricts mine till it lays still
your auburn eyes can paralyze
your intoxicating presence washes over me like the tides 
lips so beautiful, do they speak nothing but lies?
so seductive you hold my heart as it dies
cunning and deceptive crocodile tears instigate angel cries 
the personification of beauty 
the face of an angel 
the heart of the devil
your siren song, sang to my heart sweet and long 
draws me in, i cant resist for it is too strong
i want you to love me
to breath me
im writhing 
and seething 
seeking
and weeping
thinking as im dreaming
on what my dependence on you is meaning
i want to hate you but your part of my being
and now i am seeing
that i must catch the falling rose in the wind
present it to you, and steal your heart then
The blood on the petals are angel tears
for the fallen angel has realised her fears
she has fallen for a mortal 
a boy
who was nothing more than a toy
being played to her ploy
and she takes this defeat with joy
the blackest heart has been turned pure
fallen angel fell for my lure 
my arrow aimed at her heart oh so sure
and she is mine.... forever more

Opeing Doors

words are inspirational 
ryhmes can be sensational 
but darkness in the words can prove fatal 
corrupting that baby in the cradle
you do the best u are able to do
so you gotta make this flow sicker than the flu 
my words are daggers and their flying at you 
shockingly cold because their true 
the words are thick and stick to my tounge like glue 
so what do you do
when everyones counting on you but your chokin
and you feel like your broken...
but then the door opened
THERE IS NO MORE COPING 
no more time for choking
the floodgates fall, and you burst into rage screaming it all
so long have you felt so small
so long youve been been learning to craul
the time has come to stand tall
and you cant stop you cant stall
if me expressing me makes me belivable 
thers nothing thats not acheivable 
im stuck in my ways, head strong and undecivable 
i incorperate the power of will dont tell me somthing unreachable
they told me that adhd had me unteachable 
the goals that ive met? ive been told their unmeatable
but here i am and here i stand , UNBELIVABLE
the door opened 
all i had to do was walk through it
all i had to do was put my mind to it
commit to the future and do it
and they mock me a failure, well screw it 
ive got more heart then them and they knew it
i gave them a spot in it but they blew it
tears represent a tragidy 
but a smile follows eventually 
and everyone seeks happines subcontiously 
and the strong can break through the mockery
and the witty can remain calm during hipocracy 
and the strong of moral become part of our democracy 
just remeber to aproach that door cautiously

Things That Suck

it sucks to be me 
it sucks to not be able to have the time to watch tv
it sucks to have 2 jobs at 15
it sucks that everytime i turn around i am deceived 
it sucks that im actually a genius but nobody belives
it sucks that im beat down despite the goals ive acheived
but you know what
its these sucky things that put pride in my strut
its these disbelivers that put me in this rut
its a long hard road and it sucks
you just gotta overcome obsacles like monster trucks
bein me is harder than it looks
its alot of work with no instuction books
its even a little bit painful like hanging by fishing hooks
yeah it sucks to be me but what is one to do
because through it all i love myself the way i am, so true
and i wouldnt change myself to be anyone, not even you

Her Name Was Nikki

a hundred thousand miles away
i know you wont hear me when i say
Just how much i love you, every single day
I know its too good to be true 
but yet i stil lay on my roof and think of you 
i look at the stars and realise how plain they are compared to you
beautiful in everything you do 
dont try to argue, cuz you know its true 
baby im the only ONE for you
yes baby i know wat ur gonna say and yes i love you too
kisses like crack 
heart gone crazy for u its outta whack
lost in your heart and im never goin back 
Your love is ecstacy 
makes me wonder how much ur missin me
are u missin me like im missin you?
unlless u leave baby we'll make it through 
best i ever had like drake promise you
ime the one that always has to settle 
but yet i found you and ur hotter than a boiling kettle
i thought long ago my heart was made of metal 
u lit the spark that brought me to life
 girlie just told me that i get
the most amazing girl i ever met 
the one ill never forget
even once you leave
ill be heartbroken but ill still belive 
that your the only one for me
stay up late at night throwing rocks out the window till you see
your yard full of candles spelling out "i love you nikki"
lips like caramel, sweet and sticky 
baby im so happy you wanna be with me
no ill never leave baby i cant help but to linger
nikki touched my heart and it wraped around her finger
stranger than fiction
too strong to even mention 
girlies out of this world like a star trekk convention
thank god for cameras, they were the greatest invention
capture time the way you were wen you were mine
so i can save u in a box when you leve me behind
and then i can still have you when you are not mine
love is not willing it is blind 
my heart is yours 
delivered to your doorstep 
wanna be my baby mama
come with me, heavens in you arms, stay there to get away from drama
dont ever leave baby, cuzz ill die from heart trauma
so when your gone and you get this 
and im outside your window, throwin rocks at your window till you see
all the candles in your yard spelling out "i still love you nikki"
dont get mad.... just come back to me
cuz im sittin on my roof just thinkin of you,
wonderin if my heart would still be whole if i sent it to you.

Truthful Tendencies

trust turns to tradgety 
and you lie to me faithfully
you love me lustfully 
and abuse me forcefully
if love is a lock
then lust is the key
for love is not what all see
your face must be pretty
even though your heart is ugly
fare warning this is a humanic tradgety 
be aware of the unfair humanity
as you have now been exposed to my truthful tendencies

Angel

sweet angelic girl
torture me, and spin my world
treatchurous female, you have me flipped upside down and twirled
to witness you cry is to feel sorrow itself
to imagine you holding me makes hell melt
to dream your skin burning into mine lustfully
your teeth in my neck your panting breath fills my ears blissfully 
i lay and think of you wistfully
know, but dreaming hopelessly
that you are too good for my
fingers cringe and my eyes get misty
dear woman you kill me with your beauty
your only human but picture you with wings to compliment your adorability 
comprehending how you tug at my heart is beyond my ability 
hands shakily reaching for you, see their instability 
your hand upon mine is a dream of unbelivability 
but when you cast your eye upon me it makes it worth it instantly.

My Words

My words are strong they will never crumble
they were ment to be heard i will never mumble
i am steady i am ready, i will never fumble
i will never fall or stumble 
i will land this never tumble
my voice is screaming you can feel it rumble
rage in my fists but its inspirational
my words click into your brain and stick its sensational 
my eyes are red and staring into yours and every second you see them is informational
it tells you what ive been through and what i do
im hurt, limping but im still going not stopping 
bones break and my joints popping
i cant stop, my knees are weak but my bodys not dropping
i only got one leg, but im hopping 
determination is forever and failure is not starting
to see this is quite heartening 
motivation in ear drops is what im marketing 
im a beast inside thats why dogs wont stop barking
im finding the number one spot and parking 
i wont move
DONT touch me IM NOT THOUGH
i see walls between me and you
i will break through with nothing but words that are true
no matter what you do
you cant stop me can you
and you know that dont you
you cant break me down
you can try but it comes back around 
i rise again with a raging sound
muttering incoherently hellbound 
to tell the devil he cant take me now
i dont have you yet, I WONT BE PUT IN THE GROUND
i refuse to die
i am the undead
i dont need to lie
i just need to be read
i must try 
even if it puts a bullet in my head
i wont stop to cry
and now you know..... my words have been read.

Chasing Stars

welcome to the insanity ward, i am your host
its not the words the bring sorrow but the words that make you smile that hurt the most
my heart is burnt like it was toasted over a fire pit roast
i have less than anyone but yet i boast
if knowledge is power than i am stronger than most
my words are the waves and your heart is the coast
so to all that is broken i propose a toast
Because the irreparable can mend
and the unmovable obstacle can bend
so to all of those that have lost hope, this letter of encouragement  i send
clear your eye
and  do not cry
tilt your head up to the sky
look at those stars shining bright
burning gently like a candle light
they are persistent and you cant blow them out try as you might
all u must do is wish to join them and you will achieve flight
believe in the impossible and you can be Wilbur Wright
i guess the important message here is to never let your goal out of your sight.
